olde paper toys
By Heather on Wednesday, March 8th, 2006
These paper crafts are from the Olde Sturbridge Village Kids’ Club. When you go there, people are dressed in old clothes, and if I remember correctly they are pretending they live in that time. I’m adding their crafts page to my ‘cool list’.
jumping jack. that is cute. that is very cute.
spinning image: this looks relatively simple. the ‘Thaumatrope’. you pull tight on the strings from the sides of the circle, and the classic image shows a bird in a cage.
dancing dolls: it’s hard to believe this would actually work. ‘dancing pasteboard dolls’ which you can attach in a line on string through their ‘belts’ and they do a little line dance.
